Ryan Flaherty (Baltimore Orioles Third Baseman): When you grow up and your dad is a coach you know, you’re always around, you’re always learning about the game. The ins and the outs, more than just the game, uhm, and you know you’re exposed to it at a young age.

Jonathan Schoop (Baltimore Orioles Second Baseman): It was in my backyard. My backyard with my family, my brothers, cousin, and we used to play in the backyard baseball. We used to love it.

BANK OF AMERICA RTP-BALTIMORE EVERYMAN THEATRE- AS PRODUCED VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

V/O(Vincent Lancisi): Theatre Opera gives the community, an opportunity to come together, to share common stories. It brings laughter, joy, sadness, tears, anger…all the human emotions. It lets us explore who we are, or who we want to be. From day one, our passion was about creating great theatre here in Baltimore.

SUPER: Vincent Lancisi, Founder/Artistic Director, Everyman Theatre

Vincent Lancisi: And using the best professional actors we could find. And giving them great place to play. And we were pioneers, there was no one in this block it was a forgotten block. People said, ‘Oh, you’ll never survive. No one will ever go there.’ But they came, one by one. Patrons love to tell me about how many years they’ve been coming. It’s a fierce sort of loyalty.

Patron: It has a sort of magic about it that, makes you feel that it’s your theatre.

Patron: It’s very comfortable, it’s very intimate,

Actor: I get to work on new work that’s important to our generation and things that are going on now.

Actor: There’s always something in it that’s thought-provoking or challenging.

Patron: Incredible productions that not just push us, but please us. And help us to experience new things.

Patron: Every neighborhood should be so fortunate to have an Everyman Theatre.

Actor: It’s a great place to call home.

V/O(Vincent Lancisi): We’ve come of age. We deserve to, have a building that has the tools, that we can give to our artists to create at the highest level possible.

Gina Hirschhorn: Bank of America realized that we could be a part of that. We had made a $120 million dollar commitment to the center point neighborhood, and had one space that had not been developed and that was the old town theatre which is now going to be the new Everyman Theatre.

Vincent Lancisi: Bank of America donated the building to us for a dollar. It’s amazing.

Gina Hirschhorn: Bank of America had the vision that the theatre could be an important part to the revitalization of this neighborhood.

SUPER: Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, Mayor of Baltimore

V/O(Stephanie Rawlings-Blake): We have art. We have theatre. It creates that sense of vibrancy, vitality, in a community that will hopefully inspire people to live there, investors to invest…

V/O(Vincent Lancisi): Bank of America basically said to the community, they are worthy. Support them. And then they backed it up, in so many other ways. They’ve helped us with our tax credits, they’ve helped us with, all kinds of resources. Getting other corporations to support us.

Gina Hirschhorn: The bank has continued to support Everyman’s annual operating campaign for the last fifteen years and then supported development of their capital campaign for the new space.

V/O(Vincent Lancisi): We want this to be a place where, everybody who lives within this community can congregate and enjoy life. That’s what it’s about.
